True - this condition of the same in_port and out_port is not explicitly called out in the spec. Read this in one of the posts: " If the controller sends action output:port X where X is also the input port that a packet came in on, a correctly behaving switch is supposed to drop the offending flow_mod/packet_out and send a OFPBAC_BAD_OUT_PORT error. This is a good thing, IMHO, as it prevents the most trivial class of accidental loops in the network." My switch allows such a flow to be created but takes no actions and does not send back the packets.
